In the sunny, magical land of Fantasy Summer, lived a boy named Jake with bright orange skin and short, shaggy hair. Jake loved giving big, warm hugs to everyone he met. One day, he noticed his friends were avoiding him. Jake felt confused and wondered why his hugs weren't making them happy anymore. - "Why won't anyone let me hug them?" Jake asked his pet turtle, Toby. Toby blinked slowly, unable to answer Jake's big question.
Determined to solve his hug problem, Jake ran to the meadow where his friend Lucy was playing. But when Jake tried to hug her, Lucy stepped back. - "I'm sorry, Jake," Lucy said. "I just need more space today." Jake's heart sank. He didn't understand why his friends didn't want to hug anymore. He decided to talk to his other friends to figure it out.
Jake went to the playground, where he saw his friend Max by the swings. But when Jake ran over for a hug, Max shook his head. - "Not now, Jake," Max said, looking uncomfortable. Then, Jake tried to hug his teacher, Miss Daisy, but she gently stopped him too. Jake's face fell as he realized his hugs weren't welcome today. He sat by the big oak tree, feeling alone.
Sitting under the big oak tree, Jake felt like giving up on ever hugging again. The thought made him feel like a cloud on a sunny day. - "Maybe nobody likes hugs anymore," he mumbled sadly. Just then, he heard a gentle hoot above him. An old, wise owl was watching him from a branch. Jake sighed, feeling too sad to even wave hello.
The wise owl flew down beside Jake. - "Why so gloomy, young one?" the owl asked. Jake explained his hug problem, and the owl nodded knowingly. - "Some creatures need more personal space," the owl said. - "Try asking if they'd like a hug first." Jake's eyes sparkled with understanding. He thanked the owl and felt a new sense of hope.
Armed with new wisdom, Jake approached his friends with a smile. - "Would you like a hug today?" he asked Lucy, who smiled and nodded. Jake felt joy fill his heart as he respected his friends' choices. Max thanked him for asking, and even Miss Daisy smiled warmly when he asked her. Jake learned that understanding others' needs made his hugs even more special.
